Safety & Certification Leaflet

Your iCON 505M is like a mobile phone

Your iCON 505M uses the same technology as a mobile phone. It is important that you always obey all safety

regulations related to mobile phone use. If you have any doubt about the safe operation of your iCON 505M you should

remove the iCON 505M from the PC and seek advice from authorized personnel.

This device may neither be connected to a USB hub, nor to a PC network, nor to a USB 1.0 interface.

Handle with care

This device is designed to be plugged directly into the USB port of a computer, however, every precaution should be

taken to avoid stress on the device should the computer be lifted, moved, relocated or packaged. Should regular

movement of this nature be envisaged, an extender cable (sometimes supplied with the device) should be used so as

to avoid damage to the device. It should be noted that any damage sustained as a result of the aforementioned

mishandling will be regarded as “User Damage” and shall render the product warranty null and void
